Reyes' perfect pitching continued while drawing points from the lineup. The maximum speed of the fastball was 150km, and the sweeper (30), cutter (15), change-up (10), and two-seam (8) were mixed to completely silence Hanwha's batters.

Reyes, who had 90 pitches until the seventh inning, had only six out-counts left in the KBO League's first perfect.

However, he was broken by the first batter in the eighth inning. Moon Hyun-bin, who had a strong sense of hitting by hitting multiple home runs the previous day, blew his dream of a record. He hit the cutter on the second pitch in one strike and became a hit in front of right field. In the end, Reyes was replaced by Lee Ho-sung.

Lee Ho-sung handled Noh Si-hwan with a double play and struck out Im Jong-chan to end the inning.

In the top of the ninth inning, Baek Jung-hyun came to the mound and cleaned up the remaining 1 inning.

While Um Sang-baek struggled with three runs in three innings, Cho Dong-wook (one run in two innings), Han Seung-hyuk (one run in ⅔ innings), Kim Bum-soo (⅓ innings scoreless), Kim Jong-soo (one inning scoreless), and Kwon Min-gyu (five runs in one inning) took the mound.
